chip colors - oops!
I had been playing in the Bellagio $1K tournaments prior to my start day at the WSOP. The 100 chips at the Bellagio tournament are yellow while at the WSOP they are 1,000.
In the first orbit I looked down at AK offsuit in the cutoff after one limper and I casually reached down and tossed out two yellow chips (because I wanted to make it 200 to go). As I waited for the button to make his decision I began to wonder why he was taking so long. He finally folded. The BB took a decent amount of time as well before folding. The orginal limper looked across the table at me and asked why I raised so much. I asked what he meant and he said you raised to 2,000 and then I finally realized my mistake and told him as much. He folded and I won without any callers. The button folded TT. I woke up and started paying attention to what I was doing after that.
